Automatic Package Selection and Ordering

Maximize capacity utilization with Quantum-South’s solution with Automatic Package Selection and Ordering.

Are you looking to enhance your air cargo operations and increase efficiency while reducing costs? Quantum-South offers a cutting-edge software solution designed specifically for the air cargo industry: Automatic Package Selection Ordering. Our advanced optimization algorithms, inspired by quantum computing principles, provide unmatched capabilities in solving the challenging Bin Packing Problem (BPP). With our solution, you can achieve optimal selection and ordering of packages inside Unit Load Devices (ULDs), resulting in maximized capacity utilization and streamlined aircraft loading.

Automatic Package Selection and Ordering (APSO) Main Functionalities:

Quantum-Inspired Algorithms:

Harnessing the power of quantum-inspired algorithms, our solution revolutionizes the way you tackle the Bin Packing Problem. Benefit from state-of-the-art optimization techniques that deliver superior results, ensuring every package is strategically placed within ULDs.

Comprehensive Input Processing: Input your available Airway Bills (AWBs) with package information, including weight and dimensions, along with the ULD details. Our solution processes this information to generate a selection of AWBs, packages, and optimized build plans for each ULD used.

Physical Restrictions Management: We understand the importance of adhering to physical restrictions. Our solution ensures maximum weight compliance for each ULD and respects the flight capacity limitations. Additionally, our intelligent ordering algorithm guarantees compact, stable builds with minimal overhangs and optimal utilization of ULD dimensions.

Business Considerations Integration: Quantum-South’s solution seamlessly integrates with air cargo business considerations. It supports various ULD types and treats bulk packages and pre-built ULDs equally. Whether it’s a passenger flight or a full freighter, our solution adapts to different scenarios, considering passenger luggage placement or allowing the selection of an aircraft model.

SHC Compatibility: Our solution takes SHC (Special Handling Code) information into account to prevent mixing incompatible goods within ULDs. It ensures compliance with regulations and follows common-sense instructions, such as placing refrigerated goods in refrigerated containers.

User Input and Solution Control: With our user-friendly interface, you have control over the solution. Choose to keep AWBs intact or allow splitting, specify cargo configurations, and optimize for various business functions such as weight load factor, cargo priority, space utilization, and revenue. Configure the program for multi-objective optimization to strike a balance between conflicting tradeoffs.

OUTPUT FORMATS DESIGNED FOR OPERATIONS:

Detailed Package Grouping: Our program generates a comprehensive list of packages, grouped by AWB, providing a clear overview of the cargo content.

Visual 3D Build Plans: Experience a visual representation of each built ULD with our interactive 3D build plans. Easily identify the optimal placement of packages within ULDs for efficient loading.

Floor Operations Support: Simplify floor operations with printable formats tailored for different needs. Step-by-step guidance for ULD building and package picking sheets ensure smooth operations. Additionally, warehouse teams receive clear instructions on the required AWBs and ULDs.
